Obtain an API token scoped to contacts.readonly from your GHL developer portal and include it in your requests to Rankr to securely fetch contact data.
In Rankr, configure the new GHL connection using the token received from GHL and verify the connection with a test pull.
– GET /contacts/:contactId — Retrieve a single contact – GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks — Fetch tasks for a contact – GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId — Retrieve a specific task – GET /contacts/:contactId/notes — Retrieve notes for a contact – GET /contacts/:contactId/notes/:id — Retrieve a specific note – GET /contacts/:contactId/appointments — Retrieve appointments for a contact – GET /contacts/ — List all contacts – GET /contacts/business/:businessId — List contacts by business – contacts.write — write operation (token-based write access may be configured) – POST /contacts/ — Create a new contact – PUT /contacts/:contactId — Update a contact – DELETE /contacts/:contactId — Delete a contact – POST /contacts/:contactId/tasks — Create a task for a contact – PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId — Update a task – PUT /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId/completed — Mark a task as completed – DELETE /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId — Delete a task – POST /contacts/:contactId/tags — Add tags to a contact
Trigger: initiate a sync to pull the latest contact record from GHL to Rankr.
Actions: call GET /contacts/:contactId to retrieve core fields and optionally fetch related tasks or notes.
GET /contacts/:contactId
Key fields: id, name, email, phone, status, lastUpdated
Trigger: during a contact sync to pull associated tasks.
Actions: GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks and optionally GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks/:taskId for details.
GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks
Fields: taskId, title, status, dueDate
Trigger: during full data sync or when notes/appointments update.
GET /contacts/:contactId/notes
Fields: id, note, date, appointmentId, summary
Faster setup without custom development
Secure data flow with token-based authentication
Automated data synchronization between systems
Core elements include endpoints, authentication, data mapping, and scheduled sync processes that keep GHL and Rankr aligned.
A set of rules and protocols allowing two systems to communicate and exchange data securely.
A standard authorization framework that grants limited access tokens to apps without sharing passwords.
A specific URL path that exposes a function or data set in an API.
A callback URL that receives real-time notifications when events occur.
Pull contact records and auto-append enrichment data in Rankr for richer CRM profiles.
Create Rankr tasks when GHL notes or status changes indicate follow-up is needed.
Summarize notes into actionable insights in Rankr dashboards.
Generate a GHL API token with readonly scope and record the token in Rankr.
Enter the API base URL, token, and map relevant fields to Rankr data models.
Run test syncs, verify data accuracy, and monitor the first days of operation.
The Contacts API lets you fetch contact data, tasks, notes, and appointments associated with each contact. Depending on permissions, you can access essential fields such as name, email, phone, and status. In Rankr, you can use this data to drive automation, reporting, and segmentation.
Authentication typically uses a GHL API token scoped to readonly access. Include this token in the request header to authorize calls from Rankr. In some setups, OAuth may be used; follow the specific flow you’re provided by GHL.
Common endpoints include GET /contacts/:contactId, GET /contacts/:contactId/tasks, and GET /contacts/:contactId/notes. You can combine these to build a complete picture of a contact’s activity.
This integration is configured with read-only permissions by default. If needed, you can request write access through GHL, but typical setups keep write actions disabled to protect data integrity.
Field mapping is done in Rankr’s connector settings. Map standard fields like name, email, and phone to Rankr fields, and use custom fields for notes and task data. Validate mappings with a test sync.
Yes. If you enable webhooks in GHL, Rankr can receive real-time updates for changes to contacts, tasks, notes, and appointments, depending on your token permissions.
Plan for rate limits and pagination. Start with a small subset of contacts and gradually scale while monitoring API usage and errors.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
